Fotbal Club Dacia Buiucani, commonly known as Dacia Buiucani is a Moldovan football club from the Buiucani sector of Chișinău. The club competes in the Moldovan Liga, the top tier of Moldovan football. The academy of the club is called CSCT Buiucani, and is widely known for its export of young players. CSCT is an abbreviation for Sports Club for Children and Youth (Romanian: Clubul Sportiv pentru Copii și Tineret).

The club plays its home matches at the Nisporeni Central Stadium, which has a capacity of 5.200 spectators. The current head coach is Igor Negrescu.

History

The club was founded as CSCA Buiucani on 25 September 1997. In July 2011, the club became FC Dacia Chișinău's reserve team and changed its name to Dacia-2 Buiucani. This cooperation lasted until March 2018, when Dacia Chișinău withdrew from the Moldovan National Division.[1] Dacia Buiucani then started anew in the third tier of Moldovan football. They achieved two consecutive promotions and finished in 5th place in their first season in the top division.[2][3][4] In June 2021, Dacia Buiucani were voluntarily relegated from the Moldovan National Division due to financial reasons.[5][6] Dacia Buiucani returned to the Super Liga in seasons 2022-2023 and has since been a regular participant in the league.
